At the BBC we always stored tapes (1/4" full-track mono or two-track stereo) end out, so the pre-echo became a post-echo and thus less obtrusive. Of course they then had to be re-wound before playback This occasionally led to problems, particularly with the Arabic service, which had tapes copied from a classic set of transcription records of the Koran. Turns out it's quite difficult to tell when these are played backwards, and some poor studio operator would occasionally get a call from a listener and have to log the mistake.
